Day time. I'll try route 3 then once I get there.

Been grinding for quite a bit while looking for it in route 2/celestine cascade, but no luck. Was its location changed or something?

Reborn uses gen 6 learnset iirc and it does learn it at lv 16 right after smokescreen at lv 10.

Yeah I know about that option but generally I wanna keep it singleplayer only mostly cuz that's how I do in the original games too. I'll prob go with Charmander then, lv 16 dragon rage sounds really OP indeed o.o. Thank you!

Hello, with some research I've already came into conclusion which starters are regarded as the best, but after going through a run with 3 of them (blaziken, serperior, greninja), I noticed how they are reasonably underwhelming early game and only get OP later on. So I wanted to know which starters are straight up amazing early on, even if they lose their shine later. Reason for this is that I might attempt some mono runs soon so in case I go with a type like Bug, I want a starter to get me as quickly as possible to the first available mon of the mono type I'm running.

Oh forgive me, still not used to this whole online side of reborn yet and I'll prob never be since I'm not that much interested in it :p. Ignore what I said then.

Hello! Er... I've already gone through reborn twice, my first playthrough was back when there were 13 episodes and my second recent playthrough was done during the community release of episode 16. However, I'm still up to some more pokemans so... I was thinking about starting a new game and just "rush" through it, not caring much about side quests and what not, only grabbing some pokemon here and there that I do find useful for certain fights. The catch is, once I finish the game I'd basically try to do all events at once and try to have all pokemon that are available as of episode 16 (except some of the ones tagged as limited event). My question is if it's possible to do that or some pokemon/important items are like "time locked" and once you go past "x" gym or "y" point in the storyline you can't have access to them anymore. I don't mind scenarios like this though: (spoiler tag I guess)

Personally, I swept Andrienn with Clefable by setting up 6 cosmic power and giving it I think it was... 2 or 3 of that +sp.atk consumable item nobody ever uses. You could grab a steel or poison type and give Hariyama heavy slam maybe? If Hariyama can tank a field boosted fairy attack that is...

Greninja is the most fun starter imo simple due to its versatility, however I don't think the frog is overpowered or even the best starter mainly due to the fact that in important battles where we have field effects and such which are basically a secondary or additional stab, Greninja will still take a lot of damage even switching to a type resistant to an attack because it's super frail. I do believe Blaziken and maybe even Serperior are better starters, though Serperior takes a lot of levels to show its true power (basically when you have leaf storm). About Gengar and Gyarados I'm not sure tbh, we're already kinda far into the game and we do have access to a lot of strong mons so I'm a little surprised as well that those 2 are still not obtainable, maybe there's an some sort of event planned for those 2 who knows.

Yeah I know, it's kinda like the explosive girl in reborn. Thanks for letting me know and I'm also curious about Version 2 Venam hehe.

Hello, I've started playing on Insane and I kinda wanna know how hard it is compared to Normal difficulty. Like... idk, important trainers' mons are 1~3 levels above, things like that. So far I've beaten the first gym and only her ace gave me some trouble but I'm not underestimating the game or anything, just curious.

Once the game is completed I'd put Easy/Normal/Challenging difficulty. Easy would be there just to attract more players Current = Normal Challenge = the difficulty wouldn't increase too much, but hidden abilities wouldn't be obtainable till X gym. (Idk how exactly it would work like a NPC or a function to or idk, but that would certainly make the game more difficulty plus no speed boost torchic in the beginning). Idk if this is already in-game or not but I'd give a STAB move to all starters because it's a bit unfair imo that some starters only get their STAB moves at level 9 or something (e.g.: gen 2).

I swept with Roselia. I think its moveset was Giga Drain, Growth and 2 other non-important moves to the battle xD. (Yes I had to level up it to 25 to get giga drain and use 1 common candy or 2).

I'm watching ubw right now. Oh my god, it's amazing. After that idk if I'll read Seven Deadly Sins or Jojo part 7: Steel Ball Run. Probably the shorter one.
